Edge Chromium Official release seems to not work with Dishanywhere streaming
Deleted
I sent in a new feedback, linking to this thread, and tried to explain to them to refer to this thread
as the feedback form only allows for limited input and a single screen shot.
Hopefully that works for them?
PS
If the devs need access to a dish anywhere account for testing
if they send me a request, i would be willing to privately allow them to use mine.
Wiesshund That sounds perfect. If you don't hear anything further in a few days, you can reach out to me and I can help make sure the right team sees it.

Any headway or anything on this guys?
This is probably the only thing at this point that is forcing me to use chrome and keep it installed

Wiesshund just wanted to let you know we've reached out to Dish so they can hopefully get it fixed on their end.

Not 100% sure i would hold my breath on that.
As you can see in my above posts, Dish is not technically the only source Edge Chromium would have issue with, it is just the only source i happen to subscribe to.
Go over to https://bitmovin.com/demos/drm
Funny thing is edge technically supports more
MSE types than google chrome
Now go here
https://bitmovin.com/demos/stream-test
Now do the Playready encryption, With DASH variable rate encoding
Now repeat same test in googles chrome.
Now as to why am i sending you to bitmovin?
That is the player technology used by Dish and some others, mubi.com is another one that comes to mind.I mean if dish will make a change great, but since they previously supported IE11 and Edge legacy
but removed support for those a while ago and took the stance that they dont support any MS browsers, or Mozilla's and only google and apple, i dont really know.Googles chromium source is not open, or i would probably start doing some comparisons
to see what they have done in that particular area.
I wonder if it would do any good to maybe reach out to bitmovin as well?
